Planning Commission approves lot splits for Alton Place development project

The Planning and Zoning Commission meeting held on April 10, 2025, in Hilliard, Ohio, focused on a significant development plan involving a lot split for a new construction project. The meeting addressed the approval of a final development plan and a Planned Development (PD) modification that adjusted the setbacks for four buildings in the Alton Place area.

During the meeting, it was noted that two lot splits had been previously approved, which were necessary to create parcels for the remaining two buildings in the development. City staff recommended approval of the current proposal, contingent upon two conditions outlined in their report.

The applicant, a design engineer representing the project, confirmed that the proposed lot split aligns with prior approvals and is a straightforward continuation of the development process. Construction is expected to begin next week, following a pre-construction meeting.

The commission unanimously approved the lot split with a vote of five to zero, allowing the project to move forward. The meeting then transitioned to the next agenda item, indicating a productive session focused on local development initiatives.
